Chapelle de la Medaille Miraculeuse

We went to Chapelle de la Medaille Miraculeuse after Église Saint-Sulpice.
The church is on rue du Bac near Le Bon Marché.

It is the chapel where Catholics believe that the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to Saint Catherine Labouré in 1830 and requested the creation of the medal which came to be known as the Miraculous Medal.

Saint Catherine Labouré's body was judged to be incorrupt by the church, and it now lies in a glass coffin at the side altar of the Chapel of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal.
Then, many pilgrims still visit this church.

When I reached there, it was the time of the Mass in the evening exactly.
A lot of people was singing hymns.
I remembered a gospel church in N.Y. where I visited before.
Then, unfortunately, I couldn't see her body.
However, I could share the spiritual time with them.
